For Every Life

We said goodbye
To all the things we loved
Gave up our lives
Just to find that it was not enough
We leapt in faith
Left our soltitude, our carefree peace
What we thought could change the world
Was just a childish dream
We failed to stop our own demise
The tragic end's before our eyes
Hope has no place here
Maybe the path
That leads our way home
Will finally clear
Maybe the end
We tried to avoid
Is already here
Some roses will never bloom
Some dreams will rot on the vine
Some lives will end much too soon
Some evil will never ever die
Some wars will not end in peace
Some heroes choose the wrong side
Sometimes it's worth it all
To risk the fall
And fight for every life
We tried to rise
Defeat the hate through love
Keep hope alive
Trust our hearts
And somehow soar above
We sacrificed
Pledged our souls and
Gave up everything
But in the end, there's only failure
Only suffering
Our plans of triumph torn apart
An endless sea of broken hearts
Strength's not victory
All that remains
The end of the tale
Is worse than we feared
All that remains
Collapsed in the void
Drowning in tears
Some roses will never bloom
Some dreams will rot on the vine
Some lives will end much too soon
Some evil will never ever die
Some wars will not end in peace
Some heroes choose the wrong side
Sometimes it's worth it all
To risk the fall
And fight
For everything we love
For all we've ever known
Maybe it's just fantasy
Foolish goal we can't achieve
This battle's near the end
Going faster everyday
The path to victory fades away
The finish drawing near
Will this be the day
That we always feared?
Some roses will never bloom
Some dreams will rot on the vine
Some lives will end much too soon
Some evil will never ever die
Some wars will not end in peace
Some heroes choose the wrong side
Sometimes it's worth it all
To risk the fall
And fight for every life
